MongoDB is a schemaless (NoSQL), document-oriented database created by 10Gen. It touts its incredible speed and scalability, and a standout feature is its ad-hoc query capabilities. For CFML developers, it feels natural as MongoDB documents are akin to CF structures.

CFMongoDB is a light layer on top of the official MongoDB Java drivers, providing transparent datatype conversion, easy access to everything in the Java API, and a simple, CF-idiomatic DSL for querying.

Download or pull CFMongoDB from github, and view examples/gettingstarted.cfm.

Collaboration is welcome.

Last Update:

More API improvements. All tests now use the new API. Still backwards compatible
